AI Project Manager
Ford Credit · Dearborn, MI · 4 wk ago
Hybrid$85k–$193k/yrFull-time
We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role? The posting includes intro paragraphs about Ford, then "In this position..." describing role. Then "What You'll Do..." list of duties. Then "You'll have..." list of qualifications/experience. Then benefits described: medical, dental, etc. Also salary range: "This position is a banded salary grade 6 to 8 and ranges from $85,400-$192,900." Also schedule: "This position is hybrid with a requirement to be onsite four or more days per week." Also maybe other details like visa sponsorship not available, work auth, EEO, etc. We must remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. So we should remove EEO statement, visa sponsorship note, work authorization, accommodation phone number, etc. Also remove "For more information on salary and benefits, click here: ..." maybe considered application instruction? It's a link; we should remove application instructions. The instruction says remove application instructions. So we should drop that link. Also remove "As an established global company..." maybe that's part of benefits intro; we can keep benefits description. The benefits paragraph includes many items; we should keep them as list.
We need to use for section headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Use only those headings that have real specific content. We need to decide which sections to include.
We have content: role description (maybe About the role). Then "What You'll Do..." corresponds to Responsibilities. Then "You'll have..." corresponds to Requirements/Qualifications/Skills. Could split into Requirements (experience) and Skills (soft skills). But we can combine into Requirements and Skills if needed. However we should prefer few substantive sections over many thin ones. So maybe we have About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Could combine qualifications and skills into Requirements.
We need to avoid filler headings like "commensurate with experience". Not present.
We need to preserve all substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to keep the details from each bullet.
Let's extract content.
Intro: "We made history and now we work to transform the future – for our customers, our communities and our families. You'll see your work on the road every day, helping people move freely and pursue their dreams. At Ford, you can build more than vehicles. Come build what matters. The Ford Motor Credit Company team helps put people behind the wheels of great Ford and Lincoln vehicles. By partnering with dealerships, we provide financing, personalized service and professional expertise to thousands of dealers and millions of customers in over one hundred countries around the world. In this position..." This is about the role/company. We'll put under About the role.
Then after "In this position..." we have description of AI Technical Project Manager role: responsibilities etc. That could be part of About the role or Responsibilities. Since we have a separate "What You'll Do..." section later, we could treat the earlier paragraph as About the role (overview) and the "What You'll Do..." as Responsibilities.
Let's capture the earlier paragraph after "In this position..." up to before "What You'll Do...". It says:
"The AI Technical Project Manager brings hands-on expertise in project and program management methodologies within data science, machine learning, and generative AI. This role collaborates cross-functionally to develop and execute roadmaps and initiatives, requiring strong technical knowledge across analytics, machine learning, and generative AI. This role contributes expertise in project and program management methodologies specific to data science, machine learning, and generative AI projects, providing support and guidance to technical and non-technical stakeholders. It jointly develops roadmaps and project plans with the Director of Forward Deploy Engineers, Director of AI Hub, Sr AI Technical Program, and Product, Technology, and Business leaders. The role monitors project progress, analyzes performance, and delivers insights to executive leadership while staying updated on emerging trends. In addition to strategic program management, this role involves coordinating project execution activities, including facilitating committees, building executive presentations, running working teams, and managing tactical tasks to ensure successful project delivery."
That's substantive; we can include as part of About the role or Responsibilities. Since we have a separate Responsibilities list later, we could merge them. But to avoid duplication, we could treat the earlier paragraph as About the role (overview) and the later bullet list as Responsibilities.
Now "What You'll Do..." bullet list:
- Partners with the Director of Forward Deploy Engineers, Director of AI Hub, and Sr AI Technical Program Manager to build project plans—defining scope, goals, deliverables, timelines, budgets, and resource allocations using industry benchmarks and best practices
- Supports AI organization operations and helps build a positive culture through internal and external events, collaborating with L&D and other functions as needed
- Defines KPIs for AI success across the organization, sources necessary data, and partners with data analysts to measure initiative impact
- Facilitates and manages committee operations, keeping them as lean as possible while still meeting charter goals
- Runs daily standups for AI working groups where needed, working closely with technical leads to identify and remove impediments to progress
- Maintains organizational communication through up-to-date file management, team communication channels, and SharePoint resources
- Provides technical leadership and expert guidance on project/program management methodologies, best practices, and tools
- Offers strategic guidance and decision-making support to project teams, addressing complex issues, mitigating risks, and optimizing outcomes
- Tracks key metrics and KPIs to monitor project health and ensure alignment with strategic objectives and performance targets
- Delivers insightful analysis and reporting on project performance, presenting findings and recommendations to executive leadership and stakeholders
- Stays current on innovation, continuous improvement methodologies, industry trends, and emerging technologies in project management
That's responsibilities.
Now "You'll have..." list:
- Experience across all phases of the development life cycle, with familiarity in agile practices
- Experience in risk management, mitigation, and contingency planning
- Experience in change/issue management and dependency identification
- Experience in demand management and backlog refinement
- Experience building strategic roadmaps with cross-functional teams
- Strong leadership, facilitation, and analytical/problem-solving skills
- Excellent teamwork, interpersonal, and written/oral communication skills in a global environment
- Empathy and care for customers and teams
- Detail-oriented, with strong prioritization and organizational skills
- Ability to multi-task and adapt quickly to changing priorities and demands
- Experience embedding AI initiatives and AI-enabled practices into project management workflows
We could split into Requirements (experience) and Skills (soft skills). But we can combine into Requirements section with both experience and skills. However we have headings: Requirements, Qualifications, Skills. We could use Requirements for experience, Skills for soft skills. But we need to avoid thin sections. Maybe we make one Requirements section that includes both experience and skills. That's okay.
Now benefits: list includes:
- Immediate medical, dental, vision and prescription drug coverage
- Flexible family care days, paid parental leave, new parent ramp-up programs, subsidized back-up child care and more
- Family building benefits including adoption and surrogacy expense reimbursement, fertility treatments, and more
- Vehicle discount program for employees and family members and management leases
- Tuition assistance
- Established and active employee resource groups
- Paid time off for individual and team community service
- A generous schedule of paid holidays, including the week between Christmas and New Year’s Day
- Paid time off and the option to purchase additional vacation time.
We should keep all.
Pay: "This position is a banded salary grade 6 to 8 and ranges from $85,400-$192,900. Final determination of salary grade will be based on candidate's skills and experience, and base salary will be set within the applicable range according to job scope, responsibility and competitive market value."
We need to include Pay section only if posting actually states them. Yes, they state salary range. So include Pay.
Schedule: "This position is hybrid with a requirement to be onsite four or more days per week." That's schedule info. So include Schedule.
We should remove boilerplate: EEO statement, visa sponsorship, work authorization, accommodation phone number, link for more info, maybe also "As an established global company..." is part of benefits intro; we can keep that as part of benefits paragraph but we could incorporate into benefits list. The sentence: "As an established global company, we offer the benefit of choice. You can choose what your Ford future will look like: will your story span the globe, or keep you close to home? Will your career be a deep dive into what you love, or a series of new teams and new skills? Will you be a leader, a changemaker, a technical expert, a culture builder…or all of the above? No matter what you choose, we offer a work life that works for you, including:" This is fluffy but still part of benefits intro. It's not boilerplate; it's describing benefits. We can keep it as a paragraph before the benefits list. However we need to avoid filler like "commensurate with experience". This is not filler; it's descriptive. We'll keep it.
Now we need to output HTML fragment only, no /, no markdown.
